I've set up a Gentoo Linux box (2004.1 2.6.6Kernel) for a development project. As it's the 8th computer (between my roomate and I) we use NIS for obvious reasons. I can login as an NIS user with SSH. If I login as root I can su to an NIS user. The problem is that no NIS user can login from the console. Regular users created on the box CAN login to the console If this were a server it would be no big deal. But this machine was to be my Linux development workstation. Anyone have any ideas?
I've checked /var/log/messages. PAM authenticates NIS users fine for everything except console login. Here's the error.
May 2 07:51:30 kawolski login[5481]: FAILED LOGIN 1 FROM /dev/vc/2 FOR nay, Authentication failure
One last thing, in the pam.d directory I copied the sshd file to login exactly and it still doesn't authenticate.
